This folder contains all files to replicate the analysis in "More Money, More Turnout? Minimum Wage Increases and Voting"

The data folder contains all input files necessary for the analysis while the Code folder contains R scripts that will generate all figures, tables, and intermediate outputs from those raw data files. 

The code is broken into two subfolders: the "Employees" folder contains code for replicating our main analysis of New York City municipal employees. The "County Panel" contains code for our analysis of county level aggregate turnout. To properly reproduce the tables and figures in the main paper and online appendix, the files in each subfolder should be run in the order of the numbers at the start of the file name. 

The "Employees" folder contains some files with names that start with 999. The code is either too computationally intensive to run on most personal computers or requires files including personally identifying information about voters or municipal employees. We include these scripts here so that readers can see the code used for these steps, even though we do not provide datasets with identifying information. 

There is also an "Intermediate Files" folder that starts empty but is populated while executing the R scripts to save some outputs for use in later analyses. The final output from executing the code is stored in the "Figures" and "Tables" files
